Were you able to go into the "Advanced" screen and select XRender ?
I think the sequence is "click on Enable Effects => click on Advanced => choose XRender" or something like that...
EDIT - found some instructions that might help :

When compiling mesa, you can specify r600
But, the package that I get sticks r600 in /usr/lib/dri. So you can put a link to /usr/lib/dri in /usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri.
But then I still get dri disabled. I imagine the software is just not ready yet or I'm goofing it up. This for a HD3200. Your results may differ.
